INNER SPACE

Purple Milkweed – May 2, 2011

 

Alien spaceships,
purple people eaters
or just milkweed in bloom.

 

 

USELESS ACCOUTERMENTS

Fiddleneck – April 5, 2011

 

I’d make music
if I could only trumpet
from my fiddle neck.

Phacelia (Scorpionweed) and Lichen – May 15, 2011

 

Competing everywhere you look
grace and color
growing together.

Wild Cumcumber, Sierra Man-root – March 10, 2013

 

No need to go to outer space
to touch the stars
sparkling at our feet.

 

 

TOGETHER

Phacelia (Scorpionweed) – May 15, 2011

 

If we all lean in the same direction
maybe we can change
the world.

 

 

CHASING SUNLIGHT

Twining Brodeaia - May 1, 2011

Twining Brodeaia – May 1, 2011

 

Late to the party
in the thick of spring—
just chasing space and sunlight.

 

 

INTO SPRING

Sierra Tidy Tips – May 15, 2011

 

On the edge of where I’ve been
a vaster world waits
for me to arrive.

 

 

EMPTY PROMISES

Riding rafts of red above
clouds of dust,
we could breathe for a moment.

Looking back at tracks in the clouds,
you spring the gate closed—
trapped forever.
